inter alia

It's better to leave this expression like this. Since it is from latin and it is used in Spanish as well.

Anyway, you could translate it as follows: entre otros/as

Good luck

Es cierto que, como norma general, lo usual es dejar las expresiones en latín sin traducir. Sin embargo, hay expresiones latinas muy usuales en español que no se usan en inglés, y a la inversa.

En documentos redactados en inglés es muy frecuente el uso de “inter alia”, pero yo nunca la he visto en un contrato redactado originalmente en español.

Buena suerte,
Manuel
